Re: [WISPA] [AFMUG] COVID-19 and WISPAmerica

[Matt Hoppes via Wireless]

Attending the conference sends a strong message that we are selfish and 
don't care about anyone but ourselves.

  We have a duty to social distance now - for our elderly, for your 
healthcare providers, for every neighbor who may need a hospital bed. 
Doing your part to slow the spread is showing love and respect to us all.

A key reason to social distance now is to flatten out the peak of the 
pandemic. If we all get sick at the same time, many more die. Italy 
shows nearly 50 percent of cases needing hospitalization. We have to 
slow this down enough to allow any that get it to have a decent shot at 
a hospital bed and care. Not just that! We must slow it down so that any 
of our neighbors with ANY ailment has a hospital bed available. Those 
other ailments don't stop just because of this pandemic.

The longer we can slow the spread, the more we learn about what works 
against it. It's more time to get drugs and treatments. More time to 
potential develope a vaccine. This may become an endemic and we are not 
going to isolate forever. There may be a time when we all go out, but 
bow instead of shaking hands. Maybe wearing masks or gloves.

We will find a way to be the free, fearless people we want to be. But 
first we must slow the exponential growth, support our healthcare 
providers by giving them less patients at once, support our neighbors 
when they have milder cases at home, and respect one another by doing 
our part to avoid spreading this virus.

Please consider what you can do to show everyone love and respect by 
being cautious. No matter the personal risk to you, your neighbor needs 
you.

 Thank you to Sonar For their brave decision yesterday to pull out.

 I know this would be a hardship for WISPA’s finances so I think we
 should all pull together to make sure WISPA doesn’t suffer financially.  We
 need WISPA and our members to be healthy and strong both physically and
 financially.

Did you see the graph?  Infection count is flat and recovery numbers have
almost caught up.

Yup great site josh!  We are about 9 days behind Italy.

The cases grow exponentially every day and what will happen is our
hospitals have no surge capacity.  20% of the people who get it will need
ICU level of care.  There isn’t capacity for that unless we flatten the
curve.  The same number of people will probably get the virus, the
difference will be that our health care system can handle the load if it is
stretched over time.

Social distancing is the only way to flatten the curve.

Thanks for sharing!
